Unified for Global Healing is a nonprofit organization that provides culturally competent health services and promotes the advancement of health education, improving the well being of under-served communities internationally using multidisciplinary teams.

Haiti Project 2010

Our 2010 Haiti Project will happen this July 12-25 focusing on ways to assist with ongoing earthquake relief efforts. We will provide education for medical staff and assist amputees with pain management by using Mirror Visual Feedback (MVF) therapy to help them deal with pain in their missing limb(s), also known as phantom limbs. We will provide clinic/urgent care for patients in our partnering setting based on immediate clinical needs. We will also provide social services support for children and families in the hospital which will include the care of orphans. In addition, we will use art as a means of helping children describe their own feelings about their current health and living situations.
We are looking for team members who are doctors, nurses, public health workers, social workers/activists, researchers, students, and artists with the following qualities:

Compassionate and understanding the needs of under served populations

Are able to adapt to a challenging environment and live without personal amenities

A team player

Leadership qualities a plus

Sensitive to cultural dynamics

The application deadline is April 25th. If you are interested in being a part of this sustainable initiative, email zola@unifiedforglobalhealing.org.

Support Our Cause

We appreciate your interest in our work with under served, under resourced communities. Without you, we would not be able to continue setting up culturally competent, sustainable projects. Please donate to our cause through New York City Charities.

What makes us different

We are not medical and social tourists. Our purpose is to set up health and social service partnerships with under-served communities, building sustainable public health projects that last long after we leave.
